Jim Wasley Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Bought this kit over the Christmas holidays,I'm not really a car builder,I build AFV but I thought I would give this a try,think it is an old kit,it was very basic and a little rough in areas,came with decals but I wanted a clean look,I smoothed the back side panels and made a fly wire grill,everything else was out OOB.front glass and chrome surround was a little tricky,if it was a Tank I could have threw some mud on it Cheers. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince1159 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Lovely job Jim,she's a beauty...Looking at the size of the motor and the rear tyres it might be best to fit some wheelie bars on the back though!... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Wasley Posted January 20, 2018 Author Share Posted January 20, 2018 Thanks Vince,you are very right,it came with all that and a chute,but this will be garaged as the boys in blue down here would not be to happy if I took it out Cheers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busnproplinerfan Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 A real classic in true '70s livery, just without the psychedelicness added yet. It is an old kit, I want to race it, here's my gasser http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235000769-1939-willys-gasser-done/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
